Does “social justice” mean ending discriminatory programs such as Affirmative Action?

It’s clear that a minority can make it in this country, just look at Snoop Dog, Oprah, and 0bama.

Ayers enrolled in Columbia Teachers College, where he picked up a Ph.D....

That's not all he picked up

He picked up Barack 0bama.

This was back in the early 80's.

0bama claims that they didn't meet until the mid 90's but that is a lie. In 1982 both Ayers and 0bama were studying in New York within a quarter mile of each other and had mutual friends.

Here's hoping today's American youth is enslaved by tyranny for their stupid support of communist tyrants now in charge.

They voted for tyrants and they deserve a life in the chains and shackles they happily requested.

They are old enough to have experienced the freedom and greatness that was once America and to suffer the lasting pain of always knowing they voluntarily threw it away by their own stupidity.

We have the world's most expensive educational system that has taught young people nothing but lies.

We have utterly failed as a nation to teach our children how to hold tight to liberty.

David Horowitz of the California-based David Horowitz Freedom Center is more blunt. He says that “social justice” teaching is “shorthand for opposition to American traditions of individual justice and free-market economics.” He says it teaches students that “American society is an inherently ‘oppressive’ society that is ‘systemically’ racist, ‘sexist,’ and ‘classist’ and thus discriminates institutionally against women, nonwhites, working Americans, and the poor.”


He needs to be even more blunt.

social justice is turning the tables on those who are perceived as the traditional oppressors: white, male, income producers.

Some of it is due to young evangelicals (and I use that term loosely) falling for the social justice theme. Another reason is that McCain was never a social conservative and thus he never fully inspired evangelicals. With social conservative issues effectively removed from the discussion, the GOP lost key issues without a fight.

Ayers was quoted in the New York Times Magazine as saying "This society is not a just and fair and decent place.

Ironically, he's right. There's something seriously wrong with a society where an unrepentant terrorist can become a prominent and "honored" major figure in the education racket.

It's significant that for centuries people got educated in the fundamentals like the 3Rs without benefit of any "education" departments. People who knew the subject matter taught it. That's all that real education involves.

"Social Justice" is code for lawlessness and injustice.

Here’s a website for young evangelicals...includes commentary about the inauguration of Obama.

“Social justice” is a common topic, as well as “climate change.”

“Social Justice” - a sophistical remedy for those occasions when ordinary justice goes against you.
